Dress Code

Standards of Student Dress

Glen A. Wilson High School has established Dress Standards consistent with the Hacienda La Puente Unified School District “Dress for Success Uniform Policy” that set standards conducive to a positive learning environment and a well-disciplined campus. While on campus or at any school sponsored event, students shall be groomed in a manner which reflects good taste and decency, and which does not distract or interfere with the educational environment. Glen A. Wilson High School desires to keep the school and students free from threat of harmful influence of any groups which advocate substance abuse, violence, or disruptive behavior. Parents have the responsibility to see that students are properly attired.

Glen A. Wilson High School has in place the following standards relative to the dress and appearance of students:

1. No hats, caps, hair nets, beanies, wave caps, bandanas, head bands, or any other head gear of any kind are to be worn or brought on campus. (Students may wear approved sun-protective clothing outside the classroom. The only approved sun protective hat is a plain brimmed straw or cloth hat.)

2. All shirts and blouses must have sleeves and must be able to be tucked in. Tank tops and cropped shirts are not allowed. No bare midriffs. No low cut, backless or revealing tops. No strapless or spaghetti strap tops. No see-through or fish net type of blouses or shirts may be worn.
